Oil level, checking and topping up
The
oil level must be within the marked area on the oil
dipstick and must be checked daily before the first
start.
The oil in the engine needs some time to return to the
sump before a correct oil level check can be
performed.
Wait 15 minutes if the engine has been run at normal
operating temperature. Wait an hour if the engine has
been idling.
The oil level shall be between the MAX and MIN marks
on the dipstick. Levels that are higher or lower than
these marks can damage the engine.
IMPORTANT:
Do
not fill up above the maximum oil level. Only use a
recommended grade of oil.
See Technical Data, page 129 for information about
oil level and oil grade.
1 Fill the oil slowly via the filling hole on the top of the
engine.
2 Wait 5 minutes to allow the oil time to reach the
sump before checking the level again.
3 Then check the level again.
